WWI biplane dogfight cinematic short animation storyboard

SUBJECTS: Male pilot @ image1, wearing a pilot jacket, a flight shirt underneath, khaki military trousers, brown leather gloves, dark lace-up flight boots, wearing goggles and a flight cap. ENVIRONMENT: Sky above the battlefield in 1918, with large columns of artillery smoke. Cloud layers can block visibility. The aircraft always fights at high altitude, with the distant ground serving only as a war background. MUSIC: Deep cello playing continuously, rapid military drum beats, distant brass instruments continuously sounding. 0:00-0:02: First-person cockpit view, 24mm. The protagonist's off-white biplane is flying at high speed at high altitude. An enemy aircraft continuously fires from the rear-right position. Tracer rounds pass by the edge of the cockpit and the outside of the wings without hitting. The protagonist's brown leather gloves pull the control stick, and the aircraft banks left. The full wings appear against the cool gray sky and the golden edge light of the clouds. SFX: Machine-gun fire, whistling bullets, wind, engine roar. 0:02-0:04: First-person view, 24mm. The protagonist briefly looks back to check behind. The enemy aircraft appears in the rear-right airspace. The view then returns forward as the aircraft continues turning. A second wave of tracer rounds passes through the front-left area. The aircraft moves downward, and the bullet trails sweep overhead. SFX: Breathing, machine-gun fire, wind. 0:04-0:05: First-person cockpit view, 35mm. Tracer rounds pass close to the front-right side of the cockpit, leaving bright trails near the goggles. The protagonist makes a slight adjustment to the flight direction. The bullet trails pass beside the outer edge of the wing while the aircraft remains intact. SFX: Heartbeat, bullet screech, deep wind. 0:05-0:06: Close-up of the pilot's face, 85mm. His eyes remain focused, with sweat visible on his forehead and along the sides of his face. Brown leather gloves hold the control stick as his gaze quickly moves across enemy aircraft, black smoke, and the sky ahead. SFX: Heartbeat, breathing, low engine hum. 0:06-0:08: Third-person rear-side view, 35mm. The protagonist's aircraft continues rolling through the air. The full wings and circular star insignia are clearly visible. Enemy aircraft continue firing from behind, with bullet trails passing around the plane. Another enemy aircraft appears high in the distant rear-side sky. All three aircraft are visible in the frame at the same time. SFX: Wooden wing sounds, engine sounds, distant anti-aircraft fire. 0:08-0:10: First-person cockpit view, 20mm. The protagonist reduces throttle and pushes the nose downward. The aircraft begins descending. The sky, cloud edges, and black smoke slowly rotate within the frame. An enemy aircraft streaks past above the cockpit. SFX: Engine power decreasing, wind, airframe sounds. 0:10-0:12: First-person cockpit view, 24mm. The protagonist increases throttle again and pulls the control stick. The nose rises and rolls along the edge of the black smoke. The enemy aircraft moves farther away. The gunsight passes across gray clouds, black smoke, and the enemy aircraft fuselage. Tracer rounds from another enemy aircraft pass through the black smoke area from the rear-side direction. SFX: Engine roar, wind, tracer screech. 0:12-0:14: First-person cockpit view, 28mm. The tail of the enemy aircraft enters the gunsight. Twin machine guns open fire. Tracer rounds travel from the gunsight toward the enemy aircraft's tail and fuselage. SFX: Military drums, engine sounds, continuous machine-gun fire, metallic impact sounds. 0:14-0:15: First-person view transitioning to a high-altitude wide shot, 28mm to 24mm. The enemy aircraft's engine catches fire and it falls toward the distant battlefield. The protagonist's biplane flies past the explosion. More enemy aircraft appear as dark dots among the distant clouds. The protagonist continues flying forward. SFX: Explosion, multiple aircraft engines, brass instruments and low-frequency drums.
